I've spent a few summers in 7AL, the former sister to the pictured one. It's my first choice for this game, but I thought I'd mix it up a bit with my others.

Dukes do look nice, no doubt.

I flew with a Duke owner way back when, and I said, "Larry, why are you flying this when you could have an XXX or a YYY?"
